Just got back from seeing the car. It was in very good condition. Going to give it a serious think.

Yes a short drive. I thought it had enough power and felt quick. Official figures 0-60 with Sports Chrono is 4.2s I believe. To be honest I am not that bothered about it being mega quick it's the experience of owning a NA car. The engine sounded so good with Sports Exhaust. It has all the options I want so worth considering.

Agreed, it’s not exactly slow.

And without sounding old (at 45) you don’t get much opportunity to open these cars up fully these days...slopes off seeing he has 2 cars that do 0-100mph in 7 secs !

I am older than you :lol:. Yes not many opportunities to open up these cars. I would say it feels slower than my F80 M3 but that was a turbo. Power delivery is different in a NA car and I just fancy the idea of owning one while we still can. If I decide to go for it I am struggling really where to pitch the price.

I spotted a 991.1 Carrera S in the background, in the video. Did you have a look at that one (if it was still there) today?
